Which keeps coming back to "for whom?" I can't speak for you about that - Stagliano clearly has had a successful career, so clearly, the community standard test doesn't work if people are buying it. Protect the kids, protect against non-consensual violence - but not on a basis of "I think it's icky."

Sums it up pretty nicely as usual Liz. Certainly not my type of porn at all but I'm not comfortable with the government saying it's worthy of censorship.
